- Defiance and Defiance 2050 Game Closure Announcement - 24 February 2021
To our loyal Defiance and Defiance 2050 Communities, Since the release of Defiance 8 years ago, followed by the release of Defiance 2050 3 years ago, we have shared countless gaming memories. Today we come to you with hearts heavy with sadness as we announce that Defiance and Defiance 2050 will officially cease all operations on April 29, 2021. This decision was not an easy one to make. We concluded that both games could no longer sustain themselves. While we are discontinuing the games service, we will never forget the incredible journey we embarked on together.

As of today, all cash purchases will be disabled. Bits already purchased before February 24, 2021 will still be usable until the end of service. Players may con…
